How to Name Your Startup or Brand

Choosing the right name for your business is one of the most important decisions you'll make. A great name is memorable, easy to spell, distinctive, and available as a domain. NOMINA generates names using linguistic patterns, portmanteau techniques, and semantic associations to inspire your naming process.

Naming Strategies Explained

• Startup names – Combine tech-inspired prefixes/suffixes (e.g., -ify, -io, -ly) with keywords for modern, memorable names
• Brand names – Use evocative words that convey the brand's personality and values
• Domain names – Short, pronounceable, domain-friendly names optimized for .com availability
• Fantasy names – Mythological, elvish, and ancient-inspired names for characters and worlds

What Makes a Good Business Name?

• Short — 1-2 syllables are easier to remember and type
• Unique — distinct enough to trademark and stand out
• Available — check domain and social media handle availability
• Evocative — suggests something about your product or values
• Globally appropriate — avoid accidental negative meanings in other languages
